Venezuela takes Miss Universe


For the second year in a row, a Venezuelan woman was crowned Miss Universe in the international pageant.

Stefania Fernandez, a teenager, will get a $100,000 scholarship to study acting, a five-day vacation in the Bahama, jewelry, a complete wardrobe and bragging rights for the next year. She also receives a monetary prize of undisclosed amount.

Last year, Dayana Mendoza, another Venezuelan, won the crown.

Last night's judges included actor Dean Cain and Andre Leon Talley, American Vogue's editor-at-large.
